Comments:
Perfect storm of beyond terrible conditions combined with almost everything in
the shack broken after lightning strike. Spent much of Friday evening trying to
fix things which turned out to be a huge mistake as that was the only period of
good conditions. I also had many hours of being wiped out due to a huge 9+20
electrical noise which seems to emit from a model home about 1/2 mile north of
me. I can't imagine what kind of system would cause that amount of noise.The
other houses in the model home park are ok. It is easy to pinpoint the
offending house just by driving by. I had hoped the noisy part would fail and
be replaced, but have been fighting this off and on for over a year now.
Highlight of the contest was finding FR4QT CQing on an otherwise dead band at
1611 on the second day for my first contact of the day. Other highlight was
debating with myself as to whether I should turn on the 4 el fixed on XE. (It
was a little noisey and I thought that might cover up calls from other
directions.) I figured "why not, I'm not working anything else."
First contact, immediately after (1936) was XE1MEX! (Which was my only XE.)The
noise started after that so it was the end of the contest for me.
